A Family, A Tragedy, A Movement (book review)Against The Current vol. 155

This book is a gripping account of a fire and a shooting. Yet it is so much more. The lives of James and Annie Hickman, the tragic death of their four children, and James trial after shooting their landlord, form the center of Joe Allens book. But Allen constructs his narrative with the vivid stories of those who came together around the Hickman tragedy as his building blocks.
